Glorious Orange Butterprint

I FOUND TWO ORANGE BUTTERPRINTS!!!

So for all you non-Pyrex educated readers, my pattern is usually found in turquoise and white. However, there is one set of three casserole dishes that comes in pink and one set of four bowls that comes in orange. They are very hard to find and I had never seen either in real life before - and I worked at a massive antique mall for a year and saw A LOT of Pyrex pass through the store.

Ta da! I found both of these at the flea market on Saturday. It was the very last building and I was getting pretty discouraged... we turned a corner... and there they were! I knew they would be mine no matter the price but it was actually pretty reasonable and I even got her to knock a couple bucks off since I was buying two.

I am so excited.


Jaimie also found some goodies:


This is called the Bride's Pattern. It's a promotional casserole 474. It was only produced in 1961 and can be quite hard to find. Love it!


She collects Snowflake Blue and snagged these for $5.00 for the pair! They're a lot bigger than they look in this picture. They're going to live in her bathroom and hold q-tips and cotton balls.


Then we stopped by an antique mall on the way home and found this little 501. She now has a complete set of Snowflake Blue fridgies!
